I will miss but never forget Richard "skino" Johnson. We lived on 27th St. He lived in the nine hundred block and I lived in the eight hundred block. We were in the same class together at George Mason Elementary School, in Ms. Woodson 1st. grade class. Skino was a great person, no matter when I saw him we always talked and laughed about the old days growing up. He will be greatly missed but not forgotten. Continue to hold on to God's unchanging hands. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, our prayers and thoughts are always with you his family and daughter. Love you in Christ Jesus, Doris A. Griffin
